Adult ESOL for Study Skills

This course is one of the ESOL Short Courses which are for adults whose first language is not English and who are hoping to learn some of the key skills and language needed to pass their exams.

This ESOL Short Course is for students who have at least an intermediate level of English (Entry Level 3).

This course is tailored to focus on study skills and exam-taking skills so that you can be well-prepared for your English exams.

You will mostly focus on reading and writing techniques in class so that you can gain confidence in your skills before your exams.

You must be a non-native speaker of English and have at least Entry Level 3 English.

The course is delivered face-to-face once a week. This is an ILP course (Individual Learning Plan) which means that you will set your own goals at the beginning of the class and work to achieve them throughout the ten weeks with the help of the lecturer.

At the end of the 10 weeks, if you have achieved all of your goals, you will receive a College Certificate.

This course is designed to be a stepping stone into further studies or employment. By helping you pass your English exams, you will be more employable and confident in your life in the UK!

If you meet the residency requirements, this course is free. If you do not, then the fee is £180.

Your residency status is determined by the Student Services team at reception.

If you have lived in the UK or a country in the EEA, you will meet the residency requirements, but there are other specialised ways of meeting the requirements that the Student Services team can explain further (i.e. refugees and asylum seekers can take the course for free).
